Included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness at September 30, 2013, but excluded from the amounts in the table, were losses of $3.1 million and $8.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, attributable to the fair value of the swaps at the inception of the hedging relationship. Accordingly, the amounts recognized as hedge ineffectiveness for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were losses of $0.1 million and gains of $0.5 million, respectively. The comparable amounts at September 30, 2012 were losses of $3.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 attributable to the fair value of the swaps at the inception of the hedging relationship and, accordingly, gains of $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 attributable to hedge ineffectiveness.
